Law enforcement considers retraining, replacing drug-sniffing dogs after marijuana legalization

Law enforcement considers retraining, replacing drug-sniffing dogs after marijuana legalization and last updated 2021-07-07 21:42:23-04 HELENA — For years, law enforcement agencies across Montana have used trained drug-sniffing dogs to search for illegal narcotics. Now, though, possession of small amounts of marijuana – one of the drugs they’ve been detecting – is no longer illegal in the state. That means those agencies are having to consider the possibility of retraining – or even replacing – their K-9s. The Lewis and Clark County Sheriff’s Office currently has one K-9: Villi, a 6-year-old German shepherd. He is trained for apprehending suspects and tracking as well as drug-sniffing. When he detects a targeted drug, he will stop and paw at where the odor is coming from.
